WNXP’s Nashville Artist of the Month Ron Gallo has an extracurricular skill that the casual fan might miss — he’s an adept interpreter of current existential climate. Gallo’s Existential Weather Reports, short videos where he assesses metaphysical conditions, differ from conventional weather reports in some obvious ways. There are no color-coded maps with arrows and time estimates. In fact, he often says that the report is valid for whenever you happen to be watching. Chew on that for a while.

Gallo started offering up these reports last year, and he was kind enough to come up with a few just for us. Here’s a sampling:
Report #1 (temporary relief through unnecessary purchases)
Report #2 (Nothing matters or everything matters)
Report #3 (four perceptions of time)
We’ll post a few more of these on our social media accounts, so follow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
